Download or read book Fundamental Physics of Ferroelectrics 2002 written by Ronald E. Cohen and published by American Institute of Physics. This book was released on 2002-08-14 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This workshop continues an annual series held since 1990 covering the fundamental understanding of ferroelectrics and piezoelectrics using first-principles theory and experiments. Of particular interest this year are the new high strain single crystal piezoelectrics, superlattices, and complex solid solutions. Also this year is growing interest in understanding dynamical properties of relaxors, using theory and experiment, particularly inelastic neutron scattering.
